Cowardly Change of Policy in the UK
by Slidin Fast inthe britain branch has called a confidential meeting tonight with a controversial announcement.
the message is of such import that it was transmitted by word of mouth only, nothing in writing, ears only.
a decision made by the governing body of jehovah's witnesses and transmitted orally down the chain of command, a decision proving the leadership of this spirit lead body.. the gdpr laws in the uk have been interpreted by wt lawyers so that all record keeping relating to the public has been banned, telephone witnessing and letter writing also, forbidden.. now in a show of supreme bravado the publishers are to be informed that if they wish to, if they dare, they may write to people at their own risk.. bear in mind, nothing is in writing.

Who then really is a Jehovah's witness looking at the way they play with words relating to...... Who they see and count as Jehovah's witness and who they don't see and count as Jehovah's WITNESSES
Ezekiel, Jeremiah and Daniel expressed apostate-to-the-Governing-Body-arithmetic in the Scriptures and therefore would not be involved in Watchtower work if alive today, Jehovah's Witnesses as identified by the prophet Isaiah would have no part with the JW Governing Body of today.
Given Jehovah inspired Ezekiel, Jeremiah and Daniel, He definately wouldn't have anything to do with the Watchtower.
So who are the Watchtower? And who are their Governig Body? What are they governing?
Once identified, then you count how many there are who subject themselves to their authority. Using Watchtower's definition of a JW will never allow you to properly identify group membership because Watchtower writers use spin. Perhaps just call them 'Group A.'. And how's that for a title of a future Watchtower article? Return to Group A.
(Matthew 7:16) . . .By their fruits YOU will recognize them. Never do people gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles, do they?

Did you feel contempt for Non Witnesses
by Steel inthe other day i went to this farm owned by this jw lady with my wife being a jw and my mother being a non witness.
later taking to my mother she noticed this vibe like this jw lady really hated her.
she just had these little slags like when we tried to pay for the fruit we picked , she looked directly at my wife and said " don't worry about it, i only charge wordly people ".. i also have this aunt who is a jw we are estranged from.

Yes they did call people worldly then they discouraged use of the term and came up with overlapping generations - about the same time - kind of.

*** km 6/84 p. 1 Do You Have Pity for People? ***
Do You Have Pity for People?
1 Of Jesus it was said, ‘He felt pity for the people.’ (Matt. 9:36) Do we feel such tender affection for others? (Matt. 9:36b, Kingdom Interlinear) How strongly are you moved to show it?
2 If your neighbors’ house was on fire and their lives were in danger, how persistent would you be in an effort to reach them? (Matt. 22:39) Would you tap lightly on the front door once or twice and, getting no response, go home? Surely you would exert utmost effort to reach them and save their lives! The lives of people worldwide are now at stake. For this reason Jehovah has provided his message of salvation and commissioned us to carry it to the people whether they hear or whether they refuse.—Ezek. 3:10, 11. -

It does dehumanzie - but only if you let it. There is a threshold - you either cross it or you don't. I didn't. People in my congregation hadn't. Some still haven't but are still in and trying to find their way out (PIMOs). Those coming out are not dehumanized.
Watchtower is two-faced. If people only perceive the kind face, they can't understand why people leave. Once the penny had dropped and they see it is a hypocritical organisation from the very top (ie not just a local matter) then they'd better get out or else end up being as bad as those who are misleading them.

No, I never felt contempt for non-Witnesses either. Just the opposite, I only became a Witness because I cared about others. Watchtower is a con trick, a man trap for Christians. I joined because I was lied to about this network of people and there were some genuine Christians in the congregation I joined (now dead, left or leaving).
Occasionally I was in the company of another who was NOT a Watchtower publishers who had outstanding, kind resistance to their tactics. Some Watchtower publishers did exude this unspoken hatred for the person. Tone of voice, looks of distain, coolness. They gave off a sense of 'how dare you be here' even if that person was in their own home.

The first video on page 5, posted by MeanMrMustard - at about 4:06 one of the men explains that asking for evidence is racism.
That's just like Watchtower, only they don't call it racism they call it apostacy.
How often did we read this scripture to folks on the door?
(2 Timothy 3:1-3) . . .But know this, that in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here. 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, self-assuming, haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, disloyal, 3 having no natural affection, not open to any agreement. . .

Politicians need funding - but the people who do the funding may ask you to back being soft on some aspects of crime in exchange for that money.

Nice if they'd express more diversity of architecture. No mention of pyramids.
